How do I safely and effectively pull up carpet in my home?

To safely and effectively pull up carpet in your home, start by removing all furniture from the room. Use a utility knife to cut the carpet into manageable strips, then roll them up and remove them. Be cautious of any tack strips or staples underneath the carpet. Wear gloves and a mask to protect yourself from dust and debris. Vacuum the subfloor to remove any remaining debris before installing new flooring.
